THE hydrogen bond is usually described as unsymmetrical, with the hydrogen atom nearer one of the two bonding atoms, and the energy of bonding is considered as due to electrostatic and delocalization ...

Scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) is routinely employed to identify individual molecules, but it cannot usually resolve their internal structure. An interdisciplinary team of researchers at the ...

Living cells resemble highly organized small towns - in addition to energy production, transportation systems, and construction, cells also require efficient waste disposal. Most proteins, which shape ...
